Let’s check out your problem:

y4y3=y^{-4}\cdot y^{3}=\Box

Full solution

Q. y4y3=y^{-4}\cdot y^{3}=\Box
  1. Apply exponent property: To simplify y4y3y^{-4} \cdot y^3, we use the property of exponents that states when multiplying like bases, we add the exponents.\newliney4y3=y(4+3)y^{-4} \cdot y^3 = y^{(-4 + 3)}
  2. Add exponents: Now we perform the addition of the exponents. y(4+3)=y1y^{(-4 + 3)} = y^{-1}
  3. Simplify expression: The expression y(1)y^{(-1)} is already in its simplest form, representing the reciprocal of yy.
